cheesewhoopy Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I found this for really cheap and got it just for the heck of it. I'm honestly really surprised with how it looks. If the visor was a bit rounder on the top it would be a pretty good helmet. I'm surprised they went so far as to add the chin cup. Anyway just wanted to post some pics and see what you guys thought because I didn't even know this existed.

cheesewhoopy Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share Posted August 8, 2017 MY EYES! Haha I didn't think it was that bad! Other than the squareness of the visor it's got a pretty good shape to it. The eye cut out is a bit big too. For a cheap helmet, especially rubies I thought it wasn't half bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Oh yeah. In some ways it's a better shape than the SC. The eyes really kill it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin-X Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 At least it's better than the previous Rubies monstrosity. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon_a Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Is it me, or does the squareness of the visor make you look like "angry scout"? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesewhoopy Posted August 9, 2017 Author Share Posted August 9, 2017 Is it me, or does the squareness of the visor make you look like "angry scout"? Lol yeah it does. I curved the visor to make it look a little better, but like Mickey pointed out unfortunate the lense takes away from the look.

cheesewhoopy Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 *UPDATE* Ok so I like having projects to work on and decided to fix this helmet up since I already had all the stuff to do it from other projects. Just figured I'd share my progress. I know you guys werent feeling this helmet, but I saw potential in it and I think it's coming along! First I made it about 3/4" longer by using some plastic. Also cut out the snout area and put new plastic there as well. Then I used apoxie sculpt to fill in the seems and sculpt the bottom of the snout as well as inside the helmet area. I also resculpted the lense area to be smaller. Now I am currently sandy the apoxie and filling in any areas that need work. Let me know what you guys think.

cheesewhoopy Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Finished sanding and did a quick spray paint to see what needs filling in. Here it is next to my Studio Creations helmet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
